I met Shen Guanzhi again at the gates of the Grand Princess's estate.

When Jiang Zhuo stepped out of the carriage, Shen Guanzhi appeared to be conversing with a companion dressed in green standing beside her. Looking from afar, Jiang Zhuo inexplicably felt that the woman in green was very familiar. Just as she intended to step closer for a better look, Shen Guanzhi had already stepped forward warmly to take her hand.

"Young sister, since you were coming today, why didn't you let me know in advance?"

In the past, whenever Jiang Zhuo attended banquets, she always traveled alongside Shen Guanzhi. Ever since he had inadvertently discovered this elderly eunuch while wandering aimlessly through the palace two years ago, Zhang Wuji had initially asked him a few questions seeing how pitiful he was. Unexpectedly, he soon discovered that the man possessed peerless martial arts skills. Fearing he might be an enemy in disguise, Zhang Wuji had reassigned him to the sect's internal surveillance, only releasing him back recently after verifying his spotless background through thorough investigations.

Feeding was the best cure for a zombie. Lacking any such overpowered cheating manuals, it could only recover at a slow pace.

Not knowing how many miles she had walked, she looked up to find the stars and moon shining brightly. Looking back, nothing could be seen except dense woods; looking ahead, there were countless bright, flickering lights.

The arrows flying across the sky were like a swarm of locusts. If these arrows were aimed at ordinary people, death or severe injury would be certain. However, against a swordsman currently channeling his internal energy, the effect was quite limited. Merely grazing their bodies was already the maximum damage possible.

Sally looked at Jiang Hao with a smiling gaze. Ever since Jiang Hao had sensed certain matters during their last encounter, he had grown somewhat resistant to interacting with Sally.

Lin Qingyun said with a look of envy, "It seems this fellow truly has genuine capability; even the head of the Ouyang family holds him in high regard."

"How is it? How does it taste?" the aunt kept asking incessantly. The young girl nodded and said, "Don't you worry, I could easily eat dozens in one go."

Jiang Hao gave a slight cough, pushed open the car door, and stepped out. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he turned his head to look at Chen San.

Seeing all three of them flying in the exact same direction, I hoisted the captive bird onto my back and followed far behind.

Qiqi's soul was completely captivated by that pair of slightly flushed, hazy eyes and that languid, frail expression. For a moment, she stared at him in a trance, unable to utter a single word from her mouth.

Amidst the DJ's head-bobbing and heart-pounding drumbeats, the group arrived at the bar. As the sole student among them, Ye Liao still felt somewhat unaccustomed to this scene.

A brilliant radiance surged within his eyes, and his heart trembled with excitement. Yet, this embryonic anvil in his palm was extremely unstable, appearing as though it could collapse at any moment.

The difficulty of comprehending such evolved spirit patterns was simply too immense; it required an enormous expenditure of time and mental energy to fathom.

You You frowned, growing increasingly perplexed. Clearly, everyone had fallen into slumber together and had been simultaneously awakened by the Nether Record, so why were these two eggs alone showing no reaction whatsoever, while the vital energy within them remained so feeble?

If Rou girl could produce tens of thousands of qing of fertile, excellent farmland as her dowry, what on earth should he use as a betrothal gift?

He Jia, lingering outside, had long since been summoned by his wayward companions to go carousing, and thus completely missed this spectacle.

"How could thi—" Mingye was utterly horrified. Being a deity after all, he reacted in a split second. Paying no heed to capturing Xiao Man, he instantly released his spell, channeled his power to turn tangible into ethereal, and scattered his form to retreat dozens of feet away, barely escaping being sliced into two halves by that sword.

Xie Cheng smiled helplessly. Seeing that her teacup was empty, he thoughtfully poured her some more tea.

Xiao Rusheng hurriedly gathered his tableware, picked up the food container, retrieved his shoes and coat, and in his fluster, hastily ducked into the room directly opposite Ye Liao's bedroom. Once inside, he felt a momentary wave of surprise, having assumed the room was kept locked, only to find it open effortlessly at the push of the door.

He would never permit the possibility of danger befalling Jiang Yin anywhere within his line of sight.

Who could guess what James was thinking, that he actually passed the ball to Ye Feng, who was completely unmarked, and even offered Ye Feng a smiling nod.

They were all individuals who had knocked about in society for so long; who wouldn't want to sit atop billions in assets and do whatever they pleased?
